This property was incredible to see. By request of the family we kept some details private. This is the home of a retired physician and his wife. They own six hundred acres of farm and forest land as well as other homes on the land. The entry to the property is a beautiful winding drive through pine forest with a circle drive around a huge oak by the front door There is a single plank wooden swing hanging from two inch diameter rope on a limb of the great oak that reaches toward the house. The house somewhat secluded and is not visible from the road. You may be able to tell by the size of the walk out basement that the home is rather large. The living area with the garage are approximately twice the size of the basement work shop.
We had the opportunity to go through the home to check the floors and walls for heat signatures because they thought there were several hives in the home. I knew going into this job that we wouldn't find nearly the problems that they thought they had. I was told the house had upwards of nine or ten hives according to a pest control guy who had been out to look. I knew this was very unlikely as I have never seen a single property with more than five hives and that was an unoccupied property. An occupied property with more than a couple of hives is pretty rare. The living area of this home was immaculate and somewhat up to date. The garage and work area were just the opposite. Wherever the Mrs. had little influence there was a lot of clutter of period pieces from the fifties through the seventies. and not much of it was junk. You can see one of the items in the photo montage at the end of the video. It was a Westinghouse cooker of some sort on top of a cabinet factory built to hold it. I thought it was a neat piece and had never seen one so I made a picture.
We did only find evidence of one hive location but it was apparent that there had been multiple die outs and rehabitations over decades in this same space. It was confirmed by the owner's daughter that there had been a bee problem in this home since the late 80s. When we were done with the removal of this hive we closed the entrance permanently which should prevent future infestations. This removal was done over two years ago and we haven't been called back so I have to assume our work did the trick.
